  2. Skid-steer loader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid-steer_loader

    Skid-steer loaders are sometimes equipped with tracks instead of the wheels, and such a vehicle is known as a compact track loader. [7] Skid steer loaders, both wheel and track models, operate most efficiently when they are imbalanced – either the front wheels or the back wheels are more heavily loaded.

  3. Differential steering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_steering

    Differential steering is the primary means of steering tracked vehicles, such as tanks and bulldozers, is also used in certain wheeled vehicles commonly known as skid-steer, and even implemented in some automobiles, where it is called torque vectoring, to augment steering by changing wheel direction relative to the vehicle.

A loader is a heavy equipment machine used in construction to move or load materials such as soil, rock, sand, demolition debris, etc. into or onto another type of machinery (such as a dump truck, conveyor belt, feed-hopper, or railroad car).

  5. Hydraulic motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_motor

    However, many hydraulic pumps cannot be used as hydraulic motors because they cannot be backdriven. Also, a hydraulic motor is usually designed for working pressure at both sides of the motor, whereas most hydraulic pumps rely on low pressure provided from the reservoir at the input side and would leak fluid when abused as a motor.

  6. Three-point hitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_hitch

    Three-point hitches are composed of three movable arms. The two lower arms—the hitch lifting arms—are controlled by the hydraulic system, and provide lifting, lowering, and even tilting to the arms. The upper center arm—called the top link—is movable, but is usually not powered by the tractor's hydraulic system.

    Kurt, a skid steer shovels it up. You also get to see how metal is recycled in a junk yard, and how asphalt to make a road can be recycled too. At the Junk Yard, the operations are explained by Greg, a grapple truck, at the road repair site, Chewy, a pavement profiler, slimy, an asphalt paver, and roller,an asphalt roller work together.

  8. Hydraulic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_cylinder

    A hydraulic cylinder is the actuator or "motor" side of this system. The "generator" side of the hydraulic system is the hydraulic pump which delivers a fixed or regulated flow of oil to the hydraulic cylinder, to move the piston. There are three types of pump widely used: hydraulic hand pump, hydraulic air pump, and hydraulic electric pump.

    Heavy equipment vehicles of various types parked near a highway construction site. Heavy equipment, heavy machinery, earthmovers, construction vehicles, or construction equipment, refers to heavy-duty vehicles specially designed to execute construction tasks, most frequently involving earthwork operations or other large construction tasks.
